I've always preferred the stand alone handheld code readers and have the iCarsoft units for BMW/Mercedes which have been great and in those applications cover every system in the car I'd ever want to check out. The Ford version is just under £100 but I'm not sure if this would look at all the systems but from this listing seems so... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/362157811308?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649??
The alternative seems to be a lead/adaptor and Forscan which most folks on here rate highly. I've had a similar application for BMW in the past and it was very laggy and didn't display correctly with "buttons" on window edges falling off the screen making it a pig to use at times.
Is Forscan bug free to use on a Windows laptop?
Am I right this is the favoured adaptor... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Modified-ELM327-USB-Ford-Elmconfig-Focccus-Forscan-Focus-Smax-Mondeo-Kuga/223316318195?hash=item33feb097f3:g:CXYAAOSwlY5bv393&frcectupt=true??
And once the drivers are loaded to that from his website it's just a case of downloading Forscan. Is this the safe site... https://forscan.org/home.html??
Any thoughts appreciated.
